| Part of the problem is that as the radioactive substance decays, most of the electrons miss the silicon surface. |
| The partnership will focus on making chips out of 300 mm wafers of silicon and the aim is to roll out prototypes in the second half of this year. |
| The Raman effect is extremely pronounced in silicon, though it isn't in fiber materials, Paniccia said. |
| Scotland is always a selling point, whether it's crystal ware or silicon chips. |
| Silicon wafers used for building microcircuits are usually polished at one specific angle to the atomic planes of silicon. |
| Microelectronics manufacturers create hundreds to thousands of chips simultaneously on large, thin wafers of silicon. |
